From Chemical Engineering Dreams to Unemployment Reality – A First-Gen Graduate’s Struggle

I graduated in Chemical Engineering one year ago, but I am still unemployed. Some days it feels like I never earned my degree at all. I keep asking myself the same questions: “What special skills do I have? Why would any company hire me or pay me?”
This situation is even harder because I am the first person in my family to complete a BSc degree. I really want to get a job so I can support myself and show my family that education is useful. I am scared that if I keep failing, the younger ones in my family will lose hope. They might think, “If my brother studied so hard and still couldn’t find a job, then what’s the point of studying?
